The Annual Free Arts NYC Auction Honors Scott Campbell

Last night, art enthusiasts did not let the heavy rain stop them from bidding on great art by Jean-Baptiste Bernadet, Mr. Brainwash, Inez & Vinoodh, and many more at the annual Free Arts Auction. This year the organization, which provides under-served children with art and mentoring programs, paired up with artist Scott Campbell and designer Marc Jacobs. Campbell spent time earlier this year volunteering with the kids in the program, but did it help him prepare for his little one on the way with actress Lake Bell? "I know enough about having kids to know that I'm not prepared, that's how much I know," he told us jokingly, "But it's amazing to be around kids and that energy. Every day when I go to my art studio, I spend the first hour trying to clear my mind, and trying to get to a mental and emotional blank slate—when you hang out with kids you realize they're in the state all the time. They're innocent, and in wonder with everything, and I want to be like that and around that more."
Guests including Erin Wasson, Gucci Westman, Natasha Lyonne and more were able to particpate in a silent auction, and a live auction lead by Paddle8 founder Alexander Gilkes. For those who were fond of body art, Scott Campbell temporary tattoos were also available. Click through to see all the stylish attendees.
